Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a machine for capping gas cylinders or similar containers, by crimping a cap, generally formed of aluminum and a seal, on the nose of the cylinder valve.
  • a gas cylinder packaging installation must operate on cylinders from all sources which have significant differences between them. These differences are attributable to different causes, the main ones of which are linked to differences in shape and also in manufacturing conditions, as will be explained below. There are other secondary causes of deviations attributable to their severe conditions of use, due to the fact that they carry out a continuous rotation between the gas filling plant and the consumers through distributor-dealers.
  • FR-A-2049426 describes a machine for orienting the filling valve of a gas cylinder using an air jet system.
  • FR-A-2 147 351 describes a machine for screwing and unscrewing safety caps from gas cylinders, which includes a valve orientation device. More particularly, on a support movable vertically and in rotation there is provided a feeler which acts by its beak on a pneumatic contact which stops the downward movement of the support, a feeler constituted by the rod of a jack coming into punctual contact with the tap tubing and a screwing device. This machine corresponds to the preamble of claim 1.
  • FR-A-1 458 363 describes a device for presenting bottles to a mobile filling assembly comprising a valve nose orientation mechanism.
  • BE-A-687 264 describes a method and an installation for filling cylinders with liquid gas in the form of pressure in which there is a device for orienting the tubing or spout always in the same direction.
  • the axial centering of the cylinder is carried out using arms fitted with wheels and a roller which presses against the cylinder body and makes it rotate using a motor.
  • the orientation of the faucet tubing is carried out using three feelers distributed at 90 ° and being able to pivot autor of horizontal axes under the action of jacks so that their spouts bear either against the faucet barrel or against the tubing; depending on their positions, these probes control, using valves and cams a motor to bring the tubing to the required position.
  • FIG. 1 schematically represents the upper part of a gas cylinder and also to the left part of FIG. 2, where a cylinder is indicated in perspective view, it can be seen that it has a body cylindrical of revolution terminated above by a dome 5 provided with an opening in which a flange 6 is welded; this flange 6 comprises two threaded parts, namely an internal thread intended to receive the threaded end piece 4, also called tail or core, of the valve R and an external thread 7 intended to receive the protective cap of the valve.
  • the end piece has a male conical thread of Briggs type which has the function of establishing a good seal with the Bringgs female thread of the bottle flange.
  • the first three reference surfaces must be found, on all bottles in service, in relatively uniform conditions: in fact the surface of the bottle body must not be deformed otherwise the bottle is discarded; the two other surfaces must always fulfill their respective function, that is to say allow the screwing of the protective cap and the screwing of the regulator.
  • the two faces of the square 3 of the valve they are always oriented parallel to the y-y axis, to the tolerances of stamping.
  • the upper face of the flange which is lathe machined, also constitutes a correct reference surface.
  • the first phase that is to say the radial orientation of the noses of cylinder valves always in the same direction, is advantageously carried out using a device placed in a line for packaging gas cylinders, upstream of the capping machine.
  • a preferred embodiment of such an apparatus is the subject of the patent application filed on the same day in the name of the Applicant under the title "Automatic apparatus for radial orientation of cylindrical objects such as gas cylinders, or similar objects ".
  • the invention therefore relates to a machine for capping gas cylinders, or similar containers, according to claim 1.
  • the machine of the invention makes it possible to fix by crimping, on the nose 8 of the gas cylinder valve, a capsule, generally formed of aluminum and of a seal, and intended to fill with a firstly a sealing function and secondly an anti-violation function.
  • the machine according to the invention operates on gas cylinders the nose of which has already been oriented in a constant direction advantageously using an apparatus which is the subject of the application for aforementioned patent, filed that same day by the Applicant.
  • This device comprises at its outlet a blocking vice (EC 2 , Figure 3) which has the function of keeping a gas bottle on standby, the nose of which is correctly oriented in an obvious direction, that is to say perpendicular to the axis of the bottle conveyor line.
  • the gantry has only been indicated schematically at 14 in the figures. It is arranged so as to overlap the bottle conveyor designated by T.
  • the bottles have already oriented in the aforementioned device so that their nose 8 is always directed in a determined direction; in the example considered, for an observer examining FIG. 3, the nose is oriented perpendicular to the plane of the figure in a direction directed towards the observer. After their orientation, they are immobilized in the locking vise EC 2 which keeps them waiting.
  • the machine comprises a transfer mechanism, an embodiment of which is indicated diagrammatically by TF in FIG. 3 and has been shown in detailed perspective view in FIG. 6. It comprises two branches 17, .17 ', on each of which is fixed a horizontal arm 17a, 17'a carrying a plate 29, 30. Each plate that is provided, in the example considered, of four shoes 31 intended to be applied against the peripheral surface of the bottle. Each branch 17, 17 'is mounted on a corresponding bar 36, 38 forming both a pivot and a slide.

  • the control of this transfer process has also been shown diagrammatically in FIG.
  • a witness 32 is provided, which has the function of detecting, during the approaching movement of the two branches 17, 17 ', the presence of a bottle B in the locking vise EC 2 of the orientation device. If there is indeed a bottle, the presence indicator 32 initiates the transfer cycle.
  • tell-tales 33, 34 are provided on the path followed by the transfer mechanism TF so as to define a front limit switch in which the two plates 29, 30 are centered in the mediating plane of the vice of EC 2 blocking and a rear limit switch in which the two plates 29, 30 are centered in the mediator plane YY of the capping station. In this last position, the bottle, as indicated in B ', is kept clamped by the jaws during the capping operation.

  • the transfer distance between the blocking vise EC 2 and the mediator plane TC of the capping device has been intentionally increased in order to better show the different phases.
  • the TF transfer mechanism begins its movement to the left, looking at Figure 2, and it does come into contact the cylinder 6 1 with the flange 10 at the point designated by a.
  • the transfer mechanism continuing its movement, the bottle raises the flange 10, and consequently all of the support PA and of the capping device TC in correspondence with the curve drawn in ab on the bottle dome.
  • the support function of the support PA is ensured by the plate 11 which bears by its underside against the surface preferably formed by the upper face of the bottle flange 6.
